Basic control of reperfusion effectively protects against reperfusion injury in a realistic rodent model of acute limb ischemia.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Coronary calcification detected by electron beam tomography may improve cardiovascular risk prediction. The technique is particularly promising in the elderly because the predictive power of cardiovascular risk factors weakens with age. We investigated the prognostic value of coronary calcification for cardi...
